["-Pour 1 tsp canola or olive oil into a 9x9 baking pan. Spread it around to grease the bottom and sides.", "-Cover bottom of pan with one layer of tortilla pieces.", "-Sprinkle salsa on the tortilla pieces In the pan.", "-Sprinkle a layer of 1/2 of the beans. Layer 1/2 of the meat, then 1/2 of the spinach, 1/2 the tomatoes, 1/3 of the salsa, 1/3 of the cheese, 1/3 of the tortilla pieces.", "-Layer the rest of the beans, meat, spinach and tomatoes.", "-Layer 1/2 of the remaining salsa, tortilla pieces, and cheese.", "-Top with the remaining tortilla pieces, salsa, and cheese.", "-Bake at 375 degrees for 25-30 minutes.", "", "Notes:", "It's a great way to use leftovers from ""taco night"" or steak that you brought home from a restaurant. Make it work for you--try shortcuts. For instance, you could substitute chili for all the ingredients except tortillas and cheese.", "", "Go ahead and add/remove/substitute ingredients with things you prefer. If you like it spicy, dice 1-3 jalapenos and toss them in. We usually put two jalapenos in our taco meat. This recipe is very flexible.", "I usually use ground beef (seasoned with chili powder, garlic powder, oregano, cumin, paprika, salt and pepper), chopped fresh spinach (Erik doesn't like cilantro), pinto beans, and the other ingredients I listed. Funny, I made a casserole tonight in order to make tomorrow's supper easier. We had no beef so I simply made it with beans. You could throw in anything you like in your burritos or enchiladas. I think this casserole tastes just like enchiladas."]
